Thursday Thirteen #11

I'm posting this early because I'll be busy tomorrow getting ready to go on my five-day mini-vacation.

Thirteen Movies I Want to See, or Have

Already Seen, This Summer!

I read on a blog, I think it was last week, that many folks would rather stay home and rent a movie than go to the theatre. I enjoy staying at home as much as the next person, but for me part of enjoying summer is the Summer movies. Hubby and I love to go to the matinees, snuggle up and enjoy!

1. Spider-Man 3--Seen it. It was okay--not as good as the first two-- a bit long)

2. Shrek the Third--Again, it wasn't nearly as good as the first two in the series, IMO. And I also thought that some of the topics were a bit much for some smaller children.

3. Pirates of the Carribean--Fantastic! Do yourself a favor and wait through the 10 minutes of credits at the end so you can see the extra scene. I had to go back the second time to see it!

4. Waitress--It didn't come here, so it's definitely one for home video. It looks quirky and positively delightful.

5. Ocean's Thirteen--Felt like I'd seen it all before.

6. Live Free or Die Hard--John McClane is back! Hopefully this one will capture the spirit of the first two in this series.

7. Ratatouille--Animated pic that looks hilarious. A rat as a French chef is just too fun to pass up.

8. Evan Almighty--I wasn't going to go see this one at first, but the promos look hilarious, and I did enjoy Bruce Almighty.

The purpose of the meme is to get to know everyone who participates a little bit better every Thursday. Visiting fellow Thirteeners is encouraged!

I will link to everyone who participates and leaves a link to their 13 things. Trackbacks, pings, comment links accepted!

I have to agree about Shrek 3. It was worth the time, but those first two were amazing. I can't wait to see Pirates 3. Jeez it's a summer for 3's isn't it! I also desperately want to see Evan Almighty it looks hilarious!

The Bourne series rocked my world when I read those books. I admit I initially didn't want to see Matt Damon as Jason Bourne, but he won me over with the first movie. I love 'em! The Silver Surfer is going to be so cool. ; D Lots of good movies! Have fun on your vacation.
